Tales from the world of Bitcoin & Cryptocurrency

We have developed several tools that can help make transacting with Bitcoin cheaper in certain cases.
One feature is offchain-only option for our merchant tool. Other is the recv tag in the QR code for
deposits or invoice payments. Note that this blog post is aimed towards developers, merchants and/or
service providers.

As most of you are aware, a new cryptocurrency called "Bcash" or "Bitcoin cash" was created on August 1st 2017.
It was created in such a way that everyone who had access to a private key holding a Bitcoin balance received a
corresponding amount of Bcash on the other blockchain. Since the air-drop we have received numerous requests
for us to start supporting the new cryptocurrency.

We are closely monitoring the current situation regarding the risk of a Bitcoin hard fork occurring on
August 1st. Today, July 18th, it looks possible that the hard fork will be avoided as BIP 91 can
activate before then.
